Discrete (DISCR) Outputs

Description

Discrete Outputs correspond to the smart relay output relay coils (connected to the

 

actuators). These outputs are numbered from 1 to 9, then from A to G, according to

 

the smart relay and any extensions.

 

Any Discrete output can be used, in the program, indifferently either as a coil or a contact.

Use as a Coil To use a Discrete output as a coil, four modes are available:

zContactor mode,

zImpulse relay mode,

zLatch mode,

zUnlatch mode.

Contactor mode:

Symbol of a Discrete output, used as a coil in contactor mode:

[ Q-

The coil is energized if the contacts to which it is connected are conducting.

Otherwise it is not energized.

Impulse relay mode:

Symbol of a Discrete output, used as a coil in impulse relay mode:

Q-

Pulse energization, the coil changes state on each pulse it receives.

Example: Switching a lamp on and off with a pushbutton:

i1 Q1

A push button is connected to input I1 and a lamp to output Q1. Every time the button is pressed, the lamp switches on or off.
